Don’t know if it has been suggested yet buy. My band dies sound check then writes the setlist backstage. So my dream setup Would let me create a new setlist on my phone and then quickly bluetooth it into QC at stage time.
I can dream can’t i?

Dude, that would be the perfect add on to the structure described. Incredible idea!

For now, proper setlists with drag and drop songs on the QC would be great for me. I’ve been waiting for that since the beginning of the QC journey. And then we’ll see.

While we wait patiently for proper ‘pointer’ setlist functionality to be implemented, has anybody had any success with using a setlist manager app on their phone/tablet and connecting it to the QC via USB/midi to call up presets via program change messages?

Yes. It works fine with SongbookPro and WIDI Master Dongles. I’m using an Android Tablet and can also select each preset in different folders.

I’m currently waiting in the queue for QC. Can anyone explain how the system for obtaining setlists works right now? Is this option available?
Thanks in advance!
Yes. I have used both Bandhelper and Camelot on an iPad with the QC over usb connection. Works very well.
“Setlists” would more appropriately be called ‘Preset Folders’ on the QC presently. They are merely subfolders that contain whatever presets you move there. Reorganizing within them can be frustrating, there’s no ‘insert between’ option for moving presets; when you drag and drop them they can only overwrite or swap places with whatever’s in the slot you’re moving it to. It’s a more complicated juggling act than it should be; don’t expect to whip a setlist together or edit one quickly before a show. It takes a little work

I had a play with SongbookPro last night. Thanks for the suggestion beschmitt! It works well - mostly. Having a single folder of presets that the app references is exactly what I wanted. If QC had setlist creation and editing tools like that, it would be just amazing! Please Neural this is an essential feature for gigging musicians.
One observation about SongBookPro: It seems to lose connection to the QC periodically and the only way to get reconnected is to physically pull the usb out of the phone and reinsert. It doesn’t seem stable enough to use for a gig.

Spot on. This is a good description of the existing capability.

I’m excited this Function request / suggestion is getting a lot of traction. Presumably from gigging musicians who live the challenges of the current set up.
How do we get Neural to pay attention to this?

Write a mail to support@neuraldsp.com to make them (more) aware.

Yes I use Forscore on my ipad and it works perfectly.
So while I still think NDSP should implement proper setlists on the QC, I personally would not use them.
Someone just needs to develop a modeler that has sound and ease of use as the Quad combined with the smart options and effects of Fractal. Ladies and gentlemen!
